Jane Lynch is one of the funniest women working in movies and on TV today. She's most recognizable for her award-winning role as powerhouse coach Sue Sylvester on "Glee," but she's also had memorable roles on TV shows like "Two and a Half Men," "Criminal Minds," "Party Down," "The L Word," "Weeds" and many more.
On the big screen, Lynch's knack for improvisation is apparent in Christopher Guest's ensemble comedies, including "Best in Show," "For Your Consideration" and "A Mighty Wind." She also had hilarious supporting parts in movies like "The 40-Year-Old Virgin," "Role Models," "Talladega Nights" and "Smiley Face."
In the new animated feature "Wreck-It Ralph" — a movie that explores the trials and tribulations of various video game characters once the customers have left the arcade — Lynch lends her voice to Sergeant Calhoun, a tough-as-nails leader who fights wave after wave of Cy-Bug attacks with her soldiers in the game "Hero's Duty." Despite her hard demeanor, Calhoun warns up to Fix-It Felix Jr., the sweet-natured hero of a 30-year-old video game in which Wreck-It Ralph is stuck with the role of a bad guy.
We sat down for a short tête-à-tête with Lynch and asked her about video games, improvisation, what's next for her "Glee" character and who makes her laugh the hardest. Get More »

Steve Jobs, the business-savvy genius who pioneered home computing with Apple and conquered the movie industry with Pixar, has passed on at the age of 56. The official Apple website has posted a tribute to the company's visionary leader, and even President Obama issued a statement hailing Jobs as "among the greatest of American innovators."

The 20 Funniest Women in Movies ... Right Now
For women, breaking into comedy is a tough enough nut to crack without the chauvinistic "women aren't funny" comments. Not only is it not true, but with a male-dominated writers' field in Hollywood (73 percent of the WGA's film writers are men) it's only too clear that if women aren't funny on-screen, it's probably because the only funny thing they had to do in the script was fall down and go boom boom.
The widely accepted paradigm in movies (not to mention TV) is having an out-of-shape or mildly attractive but funny husband and his hot, not-as-funny wife. And it's getting stale, baby. In order for a woman to go against that grain takes massive ovaries, the ability to generate her own material, and absolutely no fear of looking stupid. Get More »
